If you know anything about MG (not in its current iteration of SUVs, but its historic form), you’d be seeing visual pictures of tiny sports cars with surprisingly vocal engine notes being driven like bats out of hell. That’s precisely what MG, or Morris Garages, was about in the sixties, seventies, and eighties. They built diminutive British roadsters, two-seat cars that were all about a sporting drive. And get this; they didn’t use massive horsepower V8s to provide the fun. Instead, they were lightweight, nimble machines that could easily dance from corner to corner. The MGB is one of their finest models, and it was made for fifteen years. Most commonly seen in roadster or convertible form, MG did make a fixed-head coupe called the GT. That’s precisely what this 1973 MG MGB GT is, and with over 192,000 miles on the clock, you can tell that it’s been enjoyed. But don’t let the mileage put you off because these cars are tenacious, long-lasting, and easy to fix if they go wrong.
Wearing a fetching Carmine Red coat, this 1973 MG MGB GT is an object of beauty in all its chrome-bumpered, fastback-styled glory. We’re told that the paint job is new, really bringing out the lines of this two-door coupe as it rolls on a stylish set of period-correct alloy wheels. The interior of this 1973 MG MGB GT is similarly well-maintained. You’ve got two new sporty leather seats, a new Moto-Lita steering wheel, and a comprehensive gauge pack. Behind the two seats lies a roomy luggage area that makes this 1973 MG MGB GT perfect for a jaunt across the spine of America.
Coming with a perky 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine under the hood, this 1973 MG MGB GT can be a real treat to drive if you know how. You’ve got to use all the power, maintain momentum, and shift the 4-speed manual gearbox at the right moments, and you’ll have a rip-roaring time. When you need to shed speed, the front disc brakes and rear drum brakes are pretty powerful, easily bringing down this lightweight car from speed.

The iconic 1977 MG MGB started development as early as 1958 with the Abingdon codename: MG EX205. It was a progressive and modern design for the early ‘60s, using a unitary structure instead of the traditional body-on-frame that was used on the MGB’s rival, the Triumph TR series. These British machines were among the first cars to feature controlled crumple zones designed to protect the driver and passenger in a 30 mph impact against a 200-ton immovable barrier. The MGB remains a popular choice for car collectors due to inexpensive and readily available parts and simple mechanics, such as the particular model we have today in red, which has clocked 50,000 miles on its odometer, accompanied by a new chrome bumper conversion. For sale in Fairfield, Connecticut, this is your chance to own a 1977 MG MGB.
Today, MG is a brand under Chinese ownership, and well-known for electric vehicles. Historically though, MG was a British brand, owned by the British Motor Corporation. MG stands for Morris Garages, so you can glean that it has its roots in the British automaker Morris. In its heyday, MG was well-known for producing British roadsters that embodied the joys of driving. The MGB was one of their best-sellers, and was made from 1962 to 1980. Four iterations (Mk. I to Mk. IV respectively) were made. This 1980 MG MGB Mk IV is from the last generation, and comes to you with just 46,000 miles under its belt. Hence, it’s a great weekend car to escape from the digital world, and enter an alternate universe, one where cars are analog and driving is fun.
Some cars have their own special place in history — and that’s exactly how we’d describe the 1960 MG MGA. The MGA is a simple formula. Featuring a longitudinally-mounted engine up front, a two-door convertible body style, and rear-wheel drive, it’s the kind of classic sportscar formula that many manufacturers often try to replicate. Few cars can capture the same charms of the original MGA, though. This is carefree motoring at its best, and it's no wonder that these dainty British roadsters are sought after today.
The MG T-Type is a series of two-seater classic car produced from 1936 through 1955. This particular 1955 MG TD Roadster is one of the last of them, well-preserved by the previous owner. Although it might not seem so, the TD Roadster was a sports car of the time. The TD was specifically praised for its upgraded suspension setup and ride quality, over its previous generations. It was exclusively offered as an open-top machine with a single powertrain combination. The current owner of this particular car reports that it has been in their family for around 9–10 years. If you’re seeking a classic car in good condition or the TD Roadster in particular, this one is an impressive proposition to consider.
Many classic car afficionados are warming up to the idea of owning and driving a classic British roadster. You see, that’s because British roadsters from the fifties through eighties are the antithesis of American cars of the same vintage. Instead of being large and heavy machines with massive V8s and immense power, the classic British roadster rides on lightness and frugality. Hence, you’ll typically find small four-cylinder engines, manual transmissions, and compact dimensions. No, not compact as in the compact segment that we know. We’re talking much smaller. Take this 1976 MG Midget as a prime example. This 79,000-mile car is up for sale with us right now and looks like it could fit in your pocket. The sale of the car includes three keys and two gas cap keys, and we’re told that it bears the original mileage. Furthermore, one thing is assured, and that’s the broad smile on your face when you drive it like it’s meant to be driven.
Since November 1949, the Volkswagen Type 2 or Transporter has been around, offering a friendly, affordable and simplistic way of conveyance. The van gained the most traction during the '60s, as a symbol of peace and love. However, there’s more to the Type 2’s allure, as it lends itself well towards camper conversions. Thanks to the van’s simple drivetrain, adaptable interior and decent dimensions, one can make a pretty good camper within its body. You don’t have to give up on space, creature comforts, or practicality, and thanks to the vehicle’s relatively compact dimensions, you can go places where a larger camper or motorhome could never even dream to venture. So, if you really want to liberate your soul and enrich your heart, consider buying this 1995 Volkswagen Kombi Camper Conversion. It’s got just 30,486 miles on it, and was built by VW Buses N Bugs.
